Hello,
Continiung the series of small patches necessary for the perfmon subsystem, here
is a patch that adds support for the smp_call_function_single() function for i386.
It exists for almost all other architectures but i386. The perfmon subsystem
needs it in one case to free some state on a designated remote CPU.
Changelog:
- adds smp_call_function_single() to i386 tree. This function
is used to invoked a procedure on a designated remote CPU.
